Leaks in the pipeline - Nord Stream 1 & 2
-
My wild conspiracy theory: This wasn't done by a government. This was the work of criminal finance people who profit financially from the ramifications of the leaks in some way (maybe by betting on rising gas prices in Europe).

Makes more sense than any state actor doing it.

I was unaware of that development. Interesting.

So, finally Tucker agrees with Biden?
Anne Applebaum's husband, a Polish politician agrees.

Interesting pipeline. 48", 3200 psi. Biggest I ever worked on was 36", 1500psi.
Those two lines are running a lot of gas...

Today's lesson on how ignorant I am on the topic:
- Can they turn off the source of the gas?
- Is the natural gas liquified to go in the pipeline?
- How come these pipelines don't just explode every 5 seconds?
- How is natural gas even extracted (I presume it's in a gas state at the source below the rocks)?
- The world really needs to learn how to live without the finite fuels we have to dig up from under rocks. Let's go nuclear.

Today's lesson on how ignorant I am on the topic:
- Can they turn off the source of the gas? Yes
- Is the natural gas liquified to go in the pipeline? NO, BUT GAS IS LIQUIFIED FOR TRANSPORT ON SPECIAL SHIPS "LNG"
- How come these pipelines don't just explode every 5 seconds? ENGINEERING
- How is natural gas even extracted (I presume it's in a gas state at the source below the rocks)? YES, DRILL AND IT JUST COMES OUT. UNLESS IT'S STUCK IN CREVICES THE YOU HAVE TO USE WATER PRESSURE TO FRACTURE THE ROCKS. "FRACKING". YEARS AGO THEY WOULD JUST BURN THE GAS OFF SO THEY COULD GET TO THE OIL. IM SURE THEY STILL DO WITH REMOTE WELLS THAT HAVE NO NEARBY PIPELINE INFRASTRUCTURE
- The world really needs to learn how to live without the finite fuels we have to dig up from under rocks. Let's go nuclear. HELL YES

I seriously wonder why Russia hasn't attacked other non-Russian gas pipelines (such as the ones from Norway). That would do real damage to the European energy market.

They still flare down here at isolated wells. It's really nice if the well is on your property and they'll let you use the gas.
Or, you can go out and steal some casing head...

That would trigger Article 5 of the NATO Alliance. You know what that means.
